hello, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a solution depends on the individual circumstances:

  • what is the error code shown when you click on advanced on that error page?
  • please also give us more information about the error by clicking on the error code, copying the text to the clipboard and then pasting it here into a reply in the forum.

thank you!

www.netflix.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

thanks, it looks like your system might be infected by the "cloudguard" malware which is intercepting secure connections.

next to the security software already in place, please run a scan with various other security tools like the free version of malwarebytes, adwcleaner & eset online one-time scanner.

Ok...My computer will not let me use malwarebytes but I did the adwcleaner. Once finished I restarted my computer and I was able to log on but then I closed the browser and tried again and I got the same message as before....Insecure connection.

I am sorry now I tried again and it is letting me connect. I am not sure if the problem is solved or not but it works for now...THANKS SO MUCH!!
